••••• Film "Children of Man" LEO Shadow Note 312
The story takes place 18 years later, and human beings have lost their fertility; it is still unknown what it means, the demise of human beings, the living people have no interest in life; it is as if you think about what the "new coronavirus" will be if it lasts for 100 years;
I like this kind of "imaginary future" movies, no matter what the movie is about, or religion or redemption, because it will cause a lot of thinking; thinking about some changes, thinking about some things that never happened and will happen.
In the pre-doomsday city, everything is under the dark clouds, depressing and chaotic; but there is no picture of the city chaos and smog and the explanation for the infertility, only a few soldiers, martial law, helicopters, smoke, and noisy people are there. It means that the world has encountered problems, and the authenticity is maintained to a large extent;
Yeah, what's the point of collecting art, no one will be able to see it in 100 years;
The film is exploring how the world, society, people, etc. will change if "this is the case", what will be gained or lost, and immigration will be a more serious matter;
All the silence was broken when Moore was shot, and the story entered another rhythm, and the film's interpretation of the realism was very well controlled;
Julian Moore is a supporting role, but also an important figure who estimates the turning point, the first dead "Guardian" who escorted "Hope";
The story is like the technique of "The Ninth District", there are not too many set props, or how dazzling technology, it seems to be happening around the real; this is the genius, it does not need big scenes, exaggerated acting skills and cold dress and costumes Wait, controlling this harmony also requires a master to do it;
In times of despair, a little light can ignite hope, ignite the future, ignite courage and fearlessness;
The lovely Gasper, the fearless Gasper; I thought of the way Gasper died. That moment was shot very well and wonderfully. It was the feeling of watching that moment from afar;
Protecting "Hope", one person after another, countless people died in the process, for this "hope", it may be regarded as protecting the child of "Maria", or this is the child of "Maria", come To save all beings, this is just a reincarnation junction, or religion;
Theo's delivery and the moment when the child was born were so cool, no matter if it was special effects or what, it was real enough to not violate the picture at all;
Why are the mob all Middle Eastern believers, beliefs are sometimes terrifying, sometimes positive, beliefs make people feel painless even in the face of death;
What the film is trying to explain, each character has its own specific designation, and each link has a reason for its existence, which is different from ordinary films;
The "long shot" after the mother and child were plundered was so cool. One shot followed Theo for more than ten minutes. All the scenes were still going on normally. The continuation of the grid is really very difficult, it can be called the classic "longest shot", until Theo finds the mother and son, this is fate, the fate of human beings, the fire of hope will never go out; this is the longest shot I have ever seen. The awesome "long shot", this kind of "long shot" similar to the first point of view mostly appeared in the shooting scenes of World War II films, but it was the first time I saw such a long shot, it was very enjoyable, I rushed to this "long shot" "The video also deserves a full score;
People who heard the cry of the child were incredibly peaceful even under the hail of bullets. The soldiers put down their guns at this moment, and everyone ceased fighting. The whole process was accompanied by the cry of the child and the attention of the soldiers who put down their firearms. Crying like an angel descends on the battlefield, this is the hope of mankind, there is hope that everyone has a meaning to live, but it is true that we can wake people up for a moment, we can't wake them up forever, all things are like this, let a person be moved and touched instantly. It is not difficult to understand, it is rare to be forever, yes, an explosion made the soldiers pick up their guns and fight again;
Mad woman Marika sent Theo and mother and son to the boat, the boat sailed into the smoke, Theo was also shot, and escorted "Hope" to the death of all the people, this is the fate of the escort, it is the fate of "Hope", With Theo's death, a big ship with a slightly warm light came. At the end of the play, maybe the film didn't tell you a story, or you didn't know what the director was passing, but after watching it, it felt so wonderful;
A really good movie lies in the director's control of "degree", which seems simple, but not all of them can handle "shaking hand balance";
